As far as food and diet fads go, CBD oil is one that seems to be turning into a new norm rather than a trend. Cooking with CBD oil offers a load of benefits and it can be used in a variety of ways in the kitchen.

What is CBD?

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a chemical found in hemp. It does not contain tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is the psychoactive ingredient found in marijuana that produces a high. CBD has also not been found to be addictive and has been gaining in popularity as a treatment for numerous health conditions and pain management.

The Benefits of CBD Oil

CBD has been found to have so many health benefits, especially when used as CBD oil. The substance is great for managing chronic pain, it is a great anti-inflammatory, it has been found to have positive effects on digestive and heart health, and even has significant benefits for the skin. CBD has also become a popular method for managing symptoms that come with PMS and menstruation, as well as mental health.

According to a recent survey, the most common uses of CBD by Americans are for pain relief, anxiety, and insomnia.

With all these health benefits and more coming out every day as research dives deeper, it’s no wonder it’s become such a popular kitchen ingredient among Americans.

How to Cook with CBD

There are many questions that might come to mind when you first get into the idea of cooking with CBD oil. It can be intimidating, but truthfully it’s not as complicated as you might think.

Where to get CBD oil

While it is easy to obtain CBD oil, it is important to do your research into the brands and products you’ll be using, as the FDA does not regulate CBD oil. You can purchase quality CBD oil online (or in our store) for cooking with CBD or for general use.  All of our products have been third-party lab tested so you know exactly how much CBD is  in our CBD products.

How to prep your CBD oil for cooking

If you’re using CBD oil in quick recipes that don’t require heat - such as salad dressing or smoothies - you can simply add the oil into your recipe.

But if you’re plan is to incorporate it into bigger meals and baking, there are ways you should prepare it ahead of time. Some research shows that heat can affect the potency of CBD oil, so you have to be careful and cook it into things on low heat and very slowly. CBD oil starts breaking down between 320 and 356 degrees Fahrenheit, which can cause loss of beneficial cannabinoids and may decrease the efficacy of the CBD.

The most effective and easiest way to use CBD oil in cooking is to add it to common ingredients, like butter and other common cooking oils.

Things to Keep In Mind Before You Cook with CBD Oil

While there are many health benefits to cooking with CBD, there are some things you should keep in mind before you start cooking with CBD oil.

It takes time to see results


Cooking CBD oil into foods will actually slow down the process of digesting it
, so it’s important to understand that you won’t see immediate or fast results. Adding it to coffee or a smoothie will actually have a quicker effect than cooking it into more complex meals.

Pair it with healthy fats


Your body absorbs CBD oil better when paired with healthy fats. Make sure to use it with healthy oils like olive oil or grapeseed oil when incorporating it into food.

Easy things to make with CBD oil

You can cook pretty much anything with CBD oil added, but there are some that are recommended over others.

Salad Dressing
Salad dressing is an easy recipe to add CBD oil to, as it does not require heating it which lowers the possibility of the substance being tampered with. Try this delicious Strawberry Vinegrette Salad Dressing, infused with CBD oil.

Dips and Salsas

Similar to salad dressing, most salsas and dips don’t require heat to make. These are easy recipes to incorporate CBD oil into. One of the easiest to make is this CBD-infused guacamole.

Smoothies and milkshakes
Another great-tasting and easy way to incorporate CBD oil into your diet is through smoothies and milkshakes. Try a CBD-infused chocolate milkshake or this green CBD oil smoothie.

At CBD Store of Michigan, we have a wide selection of CBD oils that can be used for cooking. We also have other CBD products you'll enjoy in your kitchen including CBD coffee and hemp oil for cooking.
